Cheryl Cole’s furious showdown with cheating husband Ashley
Getaway ... Cheryl Cole in Thailand

I had made the choice to go back to Ashley, and I would not throw all this in his face. He’d been texting me ever since I left, asking me to come home. I’d ignored most of his messages or told him to leave me alone, and I knew he was panicking about what I’d do next.

After I landed I went straight to the Brits and met Ashley at home afterwards. I felt sick and nervous at having to deal with this nightmare and could see he felt the same.

“I’ve come to the conclusion you obviously don’t care about me as much as I care about you,” I said.

It was painful to say the words, and Ashley looked pained as I said them. “It’s not true,” he said, shaking his head, and he made it clear he didn’t want the marriage to end.

He was very quiet and sad and I told him I didn’t want to split up either, but that for us to move forward three things had to happen. “Just tell me,” he said. “I’ll do anything.” “I don’t want you drinking. I don’t want you socialising with footballers or the people you were with that night,” I said. “And I don’t want you to deal with that agent of yours any more.”

He agreed in a heartbeat. “There’s one other thing,” I said. “If anything like this ever comes up again I’m divorcing you. You’re lucky I’ve come back this time and if you ever disrespect me like this again, it’s all over. I’m out of here, and I mean it.”

Ashley looked relieved. It was like starting again. Except we didn’t have the blank canvas we had when we were courting, we had one with dirty marks on it that we had to keep trying to wipe away.
